A RoNakshi FF- Hero for Hire

Chapter 103

'Rohit! Kuch to bolo..'

His eyes were empty, his face devoid of expression.

'Rohit..'

'Kya bolun? Ke mein ab bekaar hogaya hun?'

Sonakshi took his hand, he pushed hers away.

'Nahin, Rohit..'

'Kis se jhoot bol rahi ho Sona? Layman hun, magar paralysis mujhe bhi samajh aata hai..'

'Rohit, tum..'

'I'm of no use now..bekaar...'
He hit his thighs with his fists.

'Nahin, nahin..aisa mat karo..'

Sonakshi caught hold of his fists as he continued hitting himself, tears running down her cheeks.

'Mein tumhe kuch nahin honay dungi..' she held his hands.

He jerked them off in anger.

'Yeah, right! Khuda se larrogi? Ya khud ban jao gi? Kaise roko gi?'

'Aisa mat bolo, Rohit..mein..'

'Nahin, matlab kya karogi? Tum kuch nahin kar sakti, Sona..kuch nahin..'

Sonakshi hugged him, he resisted.
He suddenly crushed her in his arms, crying.
Sonakshi felt as if her heart would burst out of her chest, with his sobbing.

She ran her hands over his hair and back, soothingly.

'No, Rohit! Please! Aisa mat karo..please..hum poori mehnat karenge..poori koshish karenge..dekhna, tum bilkul theek hojaoge..mein hun na tumhare saath..tum bas..'

'Sona! Kaise hoga? Kya hoga? Mein kabhi nahin khara ho paaya to? Chal nahin paaya to??'

Sonakshi took his face in her hands.

'Meri taraf dekho..Rohit..' as he resisted meeting her gaze.
'Meri baat suno! Tum ek bohot brave or strong insaan ho, I know you can do it! Or mein hun tumhare saath..tumhari Sona! Hum milkay koshish karenge..hai na? Mera saath do ge na? Bolo..'

She wiped his tears with her thumbs, then hands.
He nodded, and she hugged him again, tightly.

Please, God! Let my hope be correct and we can get through this..together.

'Sona..mein..mera show? Kya hoga ab? Meri job?'

'Rohit! Kuch soch lenge, baat karenge na tumhare show ke director se, producer se..dekhte hain kya bolte hain..tum bilkul relax hojao please..sab dekh lenge..'

Rohit was somewhat mollified.

Oh God! Please get us out of this, soon!!

                      *****

'Are you serious, Sameer sir? Yeh producers ne bola hai? I really appreciate it..ji, ji..mein aap ko bataunga..okay..thankyou so much..I'm grateful..'

Rohit cut the call, but kept staring at the phone.

'Kya hua, Rohit? Kya kaha unhun ne?'

Sonakshi had been sitting beside him on the sofa, in their room.

The news of Rohit's accident had made it to the television industry.
Rohit's phone had been ringing non stop since he had gotten back from the hospital 2 days ago.

'Sona! Woh keh rahe hain ke they are not willing to let me go..matlab, kafi scenes to Goa mein shoot kar liye hain na. They are saying ke koi naya track daal denge..' he sounded as if he could not believe it.
